Awesome! Very good for both Chronicle and The Woman in Black!

I'll go see one of them next week and hopefully the other one soon after.



Boutros on 04 February 2012

Also I've seen The Grey last week and it really was awesome. Absolutely the most intense plane crash scene I have ever seen. I think it deserves more!

Based on studio estimates, Chronicle held off The Woman in Black to take the top spot this weekend, though Daniel Radcliffe's first post-Potter outing was impressive in its own right. The weekend's other opener, Big Miracle, was a tad disappointing, but it still finished in line with modest expectations. The Top 12 wound up grossing $95.9 million, which is up a whopping 31 percent from Super Bowl 2011.

Chronicle debuted to an estimated $22 million, which is the fourth-highest Super Bowl debut ever and second-best among movies targeting at men behind Taken ($24.7 million). It did earn less than major found footage flicks like Cloverfield ($40.06 million) and last month's The Devil Inside ($33.7 million), not to mention the last two Paranormal Activity movies, though that shouldn't detract too much from this movie's success.

Hmm... That's quite low for the phantom menace 3d, I thought it would be huuuge! Although I guess it is a good that it's no doing too well, cos then every single successful film of the past decade would be released in 3d!!



My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015
